+<description>
+ <para>
+ Defines what kind of rpc server to use for a named pipe.
+ The rpc_server prefix must be followed by the pipe name, and a value.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Three possible values are currently supported:
+ <command moreinfo="none">embedded</command>
+ <command moreinfo="none">daemon</command>
+ <command moreinfo="none">external</command>
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The classic method is to run every pipe as an internal function
+ <emphasis>embedded</emphasis> in smbd.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ An alternative method is to fork a <emphasis>daemon</emphasis>
+ early on at smbd startup time. this is supported only for selected
+ pipes.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Choosing the <emphasis>external</emphasis> option allows to run a
+ completely indipendent (3rd party) server capable of interfacing
+ with samba via the MS-RPC intrerface over named pipes.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Currently only the spoolss pipe can be configured in
+ <emphasis>daemon</emphasis> mode like this:
+ <programlisting>
+ rpc_server:spoolss = daemon
+ </programlisting>
+ </para>
